Two fashion trends that are making waves this season are tie-up cardigans and leopard print. Merging both trends into one, shoppers were quick to snap up Roman Original’s Leopard Tie Front V-Neck Cardigan – indeed, the autumnal purchase was so sought-after it sold out in the red colourway within days of appearing on the fashion brand’s website.

If this ticks all your style boxes, you can still grab the black, ivory and stone shades, and if you’re swift, enjoy a 10% discount with the code CRISP at checkout. This reduces the cardigan’s usual price of £38 to £34.20.

The ‘spot on trend’ cardigan is a fantastic addition to any wardrobe this autumn as it’s perfect for layering. Throw it over a plain tee to instantly elevate your outfit to stylish heights, or wear alone on a slightly warmer day with jeans and flat ballet pumps.

Some shoppers are even matching theirs with other coordinating accessories like leopard print loafers, or styling it with a leopard print midi skirt to complete the look. The Roman cardigan is only available in one size which is something to bear in mind, but one review stated it ‘fits perfectly’ due to its oversized silhouette and the adjustable tie fastening.

This cardigan boasts a flattering V-neckline and long dropped shoulder sleeves to keep you cosy throughout the season, plus the front ties add a trendy touch, made from a soft knit fabric, reported Devon Live.

Praise is flowing in from Roman shoppers sporting the stylish cardigan, with one shopper commenting ‘the front ties are cute’ while another admitted: “Saw someone wearing this on Instagram and loved it! “. A satisfied customer also noted the added charm of ‘leopard print ties just make it perfect’, attesting to its cosiness and that it’s hitting just the right note with the ‘tie fastening is spot on trend now’.

For those deliberating over which hue to pick, one buyer revealed their affection for the black and leopard design saying it ‘just adds to the look’, and another was taken with the stone option, calling it ‘modern’ and a great ‘good colour for the season’.

Crafted from a mixed-fibre material which contains just 10% wool, the Roman cardigan might not be the softest choice if you’re after a more luxurious feel, consider splurging £89 on Marks and Spencer’s Pure Cashmere Crew Neck Cardigan which is lauded by purchasers as ‘extremely soft’.

Alternatively, Stradivarius offers a Soft-touch Knit Cardigan with Ties available in cream, khaki, or leopard print for £35.99. If you’re gearing up for festive events, Next’s Sparkle Bow Button Cable Knitted Cardigan at £39 provides an eye-catching twist on the style, available in both petite and regular fits.
